Hi, To remove a bid from a BiddingStrategyConfiguration <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201609/AdGroupCriterionService.BiddingStrategyConfiguration#bids>, you need to update its bid field to a Money <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/latest/CampaignService.Money> object with microAmount set to 0. When you use the example provided here <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/samples/java/basic-operations#update-a-keyword> to clear the bid this way, you'll encounter NullPointerException as the criterionCpcBid <https://github.com/googleads/googleads-java-lib/blob/master/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/v201609/basicoperations/UpdateKeyword.java#L102> is assigned a value when the CpcBidSource is "CRITERION" and is otherwise null. When the operation to clear the bid is successful, the CpcBidSource is "ADGROUP" so criterionCpcBid will not be assigned a value. You need to modify the example to account for this when the response is processed.
Let me know if this works.
